It's the new Mccoy. It's "cool" to shit on Doctor Who now so people won't appreciate the good stuff while its here. Personally i'm just going to relax and enjoy Moffat's last series before the Chibnall shit age approaches.

Nightmare in Silver (Transmission Order - 241)

I ¤¤¤¤ing hated this when it aired. Near plotless "high concept" ¤¤¤¤-wittery of the worst order.

The Good - Jason Watkins is excellent with the tiny amount of piss poor drivel he's asked to spout. Warwick Davies tries his best with some equally ¤¤¤¤e material.

The Bad -Where the ¤¤¤¤ do you start? Right from the opening scene, with the Doctor, Clara, and the two irritating kids sticking their heads out of the TARDIS one by one, Scooby Doo stylee, you know you're in for a right cluster-¤¤¤¤ of ineptitude. (People slag Love & Monsters for going all "Scooby Doo" in its opening sequence - Love & Monster is being told by Elton as an unreliable narrator. There is no such artifice here - we are supposed to believe that is actually how these ¤¤¤¤ing muppets leave the TARDIS.) The entire cast are completely ¤¤¤¤ing wasted - Jason Watkins, Warwick Davies, Tamzin Outhwaite... these are some ¤¤¤¤ING good actors being made to spout the most hideously contrived, ¤¤¤¤-witted, moronic nonsense. "We're a punishment platoon," explains poor old Tamzin, in a fashion which one can only imagine is supposed to elicit "oh, of course!" reactions from the audience in a similar fashion to "it's just a Doctor Moon" from Silence in the Library. Again, we aren't going to react that way because what the ¤¤¤¤ is a punishment platoon? What kind of tit-headed military would EVER come up with the concept of "these soldiers are REALLY ¤¤¤¤e, let's put them all together in a single platoon?" None. They would either shape them up or ship them out, not think, "let's give all these arse-brained simpletons massive, planet-destroying weapons and leave them to it." What the ¤¤¤¤ is the point of the bloody kids? Angie in particular is SO ¤¤¤¤ING ANNOYING. She spends the whole episode delivering, "you're not my mum, I hate you, I'm bored, wah, wah, wah" ¤¤¤¤e.
>>
he is kidnapped by a Cyberman. Is her reaction one of terror? Is she crying with fear? Does she suddenly realise that she's lost, alone, millions of light years from home, and her family will never know how she died horribly at the hands of a metallic monster? No. Of course not. Her reaction is, "put me down, I hate you." ¤¤¤¤ OFF, you little ¤¤¤¤. Her brother is "in chess club at school." Really? So how the ¤¤¤¤ does he lose in two sodding moves with a fool's mate?! Is he just there for the people who can play chess to laugh at? The scene where he decides to switch the lights on would be laughably cliched enough to begin with but it becomes even more hilariously inept when the room he's wandering through is already brightly lit. Murray Gold parping and screeching his way through the score is NEVER going to make that scene effective, the way it's been shot. The stuff with the Cyber Planner taking over the Doctor is equally poor. Why the ¤¤¤¤ does the Doctor's brain being invaded by a cold, logical machine mind result in Matt Smith going even wackier and flailier than usual (an achievement in and of itself?) The scenes set inside the Doctor's head are SO lacking in imagination and they're STILL better than the ¤¤¤¤e in the "real world." "I could call myself Mr Clever." You could. Of course you could. But why the ¤¤¤¤ WOULD you? You're a ¤¤¤¤ing Cyber Planner. From the performance, you should call yourself Mr ¤¤¤¤wit, it's more accurate. ALL of the scenes of the Doctor's "dramatic battle" with the Cyber Planner are woefully piss poor. Undramatically shot, REALLY badly acted by Matt Smith (I can't say I blame him - NOBODY could have made the drivel he's being made to spout sound remotely coherent) and Stephen Woolfenden's direction is appallingly poor. It's shockingly bad throughout, but particularly in the confused mess of a sequence where Tamzin Outhwaite's "character" (I use the word advisedly) is killed.

I love episodes that mentions the other doctors or if a picture or somewhat like appears, it's quite comfy.

And I liked the cyberman make-up on 11th
>>
I thought on initial viewing that the soldier running in had shot her for some reason. It's SO unclear that the Cyberman outside has done it, particularly as the shot in question is utterly impossible from where he's standing. Or is this another Cyber-superpower? The ability to shoot round corners? The "mission statement" for this episode, as we were proudly told again and again in the run up to transmission, was to "make the Cybermen scary again." So why the buggering ¤¤¤¤ did nobody bother to sit down and have a chat about what it is that MAKES Cybermen scary? It's not detachable limbs or super-speed or invulnerability to electric shocks, I'll tell you that ¤¤¤¤ing much for a start. On the subject of super speed, if you give a monster a superpower, you had better ¤¤¤¤ing well tell me why the ¤¤¤¤ they never use it again. The end sequence of the Cybermen advancing on the castle just had me screaming, "why are you marching? ¤¤¤¤ing RUN in and kill them all before they can even see you!" But that would have required a basic grasp of plotting. Even a throwaway technobabble line from the Doctor, after Angie is kidnapped, to the effect of "I've set up an inertial dampening field throughout the complex. They won't be able to use THAT power again!" would have been better than "why aren't they running quickly again? Erm... ooh... erm... LOOK! OVER THERE! <runs away>." The Cybermen aren't scary because they're going to run at you like Usain Bolt. They're not scary because they can impersonate Thing from the Adams Family at will. (On which subject, why does the Cyberman detach his hand to attack that soldier? Couldn't he be bothered turning round? Answer - he does it because that's what he said he does in the script. Again, an easy fix - the soldier hides somewhere that the gap is too tight for the Cyberman to get through. That's if you're determined to make this a "reason they're scary," which you shouldn't because it's PISH.)

>>80838472

>>80838494
I wish they'd done more with it. Instead of just flashing through their faces with Matt clearly just stood in some greenscreen studio.
>>
They're certainly not scary because there are BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF THEM! The Cybermen are a race on the edge of extinction, fighting for their very survival. This has forced them down an evolutionary cul-de-sac from which they cannot escape, partly because they switched off the parts of their brain that would make them WANT to escape it. They are not scary because they are going to kill you, or tear you apart, or eviscerate you, or destroy your galaxy. They are scary because they are going to CHANGE everything that is YOU into everything that is THEM. And part of you will still be alive, forever, trapped under emotional inhibitors and metal limbs and enforced electronic obedience. Will that part of you still be aware? Do you still remember who you used to be, after conversion, but that person is no longer able to reach the surface? Are you still aware of what YOU would do in any given situation, while your cybernetic control mechanism makes you relentlessly attempt to do the same to everyone else you ever knew against your will? That's what's scary about Cybermen - the conversion to something other, the repression of self. Thankfully they got rid of the hideously inappropriate "delete" catchphrase, although I'm not fond of "update in progress" as a replacement. Bring back, "You are not like us. You will become like us." This episode didn't make Cybermen scary again because it continued the complete misinterpretation of concept that has been weighing them down since their first new series appearance. Cybermen are scary when they skulk around in the shadows, stealing one or two people at a time for conversion, desperate to simply survive. The most powerful we ever saw the Cybermen in the classic series was Earthshock. And even there, there are so few of them that the thought of an alliance between Earth and Alpha Centauri forced them to launch an all out attack. By stealth. Then we get to the end of the "conflict."
>>
I can only assume that Neil Gaiman learned chess from the Curse of Fenric rule book. "Mate in three moves" usually refers to the number of actual chess moves, otherwise Gary Kasparov could have "won" his chess matches in three moves by 1) stand up; 2) beat opponent into unconsciousness; 3) sit back down. Then, having spent the entire episode demanding that nobody blow up the planet, the solution is... to blow up the planet. Porridge could have got them all off the planet, and beamed the TARDIS onto his ship, within three seconds of meeting them all. But he was feeling a little sorry for himself. Woop de ¤¤¤¤ing doo. And then we get the coda. That ¤¤¤¤ing coda. Not only has the episode failed to make the Cybermen scary for the audience, even the kids think the whole thing was an absolute hoot and they can't wait to have another go. "Thanks for taking me halfway across the Universe where I almost died horribly! See you soon!" And Clara THANKS him for the "kids' day out!" ¤¤¤¤ OFF you vacuous bucket of womble vomit! Yet again, Clara is only "mysterious" because the Doctor keeps saying "she's so MYSTERIOUS!" And that's before the Doctor apparently decides he's going to have a wank over Clara's tight skirt. Woeful ¤¤¤¤e. I've probably missed at least a hundred other things I despise about this absolute train wreck of an episode but I would have to think about it again in order to remember those and I seriously don't ever want to think about this ¤¤¤¤ing ¤¤¤¤e again.

The Ugly - Poor old Matt Smith. This is by far his worst performance as the Doctor. He was ill served throughout most of his tenure but he must have thought things had reached a new low when this steaming turd dropped through his letter box. He's probably had to burn the welcome mat.

Badly written, badly acted, badly directed, ill-conceived, complete and utter worthless bag of garbage. Chalk up another episode I hope to never see again.

Original Score - 1/10
Rewatch Score - 0/10

No, it isn't "cool" to shit on Doctor Who now. There are just as many fans of Moffat as there are detractors. Go on Gallifrey Base and see for yourself. He has defenders and attackers, and he deserves both.

The world is vast and complicated and not at all black and white. Some people criticise Doctor Who because they genuinely think it's bad. Some of them will make very good points. Some will make spurious over-simplifications and exaggerations. You need to able to to take each piece criticism and evaluate it according to the merits of its argument rather than group all criticism together as a bunch of brainless sheeple following a trend.

Blind dismissal of all criticism as inauthentic is tantamount to delusion or denial. Nothing is perfect, including Doctor Who, and there are things about it people are entirely entitled to criticise as much as praise.

You need to be able to accept and acknowledge that it's ok for people not to like what you like, and if they do, it doesn't make them stupid or shallow or wrong, just different - at least, if you have any interest in being a functioning human being.

If people aren't appreciating the "good stuff" while it's here, it's entirely possible that, to them, it isn't and never will be good, and that's why they're upset.

My first doctor was 11th and I remember that scene in Let's Kill Hitler when the interface started to show Donna, Martha and Rose I didn't knew it who they were and I knew it they were special, I think that was important to make me interested to watch the other seasons, not just the NuWho but the rest and the movie.[

I didn't see 12th having much of these references to his past, just the dinner in the middle of the desert of 11th and I guess that's all, right?
>>
>>80838612
I agree about Moffat rewriting TDW. There's no other explanation. Gaiman can cry about losing the script, having to rewrite the whole thing, but the core story elements are fucking shite. And then the production was horrific too. Must've been a big rush job.
>>
>>80838741
Apparently the original story had victorian Clara (she was going to be the companion originally) and her kids that she was taking care of. So it was basically the same except with Modern Clara and Modern kids. The story was just bad. Gaiman dropped the ball.

The problem is: what one 'fan' praises, another will criticize. Which is why I prefer to try to get an 'overall' idea of what fans think, which can be almost impossible.

Ratings on IMDb and similar are probably the best way of attempting to judge what's popular within the fandom.

I felt Victorian Clara had more to her, more potential than "IMPOSSIBLE GIRL BECAUSE EVERYONES SAYING IT" desu. She would've been able to react differently to things, rather than being a mesh of the 4 or 5 modern day females before her, and they could've used Victorian London as a base rather than keep coming back to 2013 London.

That was part of his character progression. Series 8 he was insecure and Cynical, and series 9 he got a bit better and happier, and series 10 he will have a stable personality which will be 50 percent series 8 and 50 percent series 10.

We haven't really seen S10 though so kind of early to say what he'll be like. I expect it will be like Mysterio.
I agree with you though, Its basically what Colin wanted them to do with his Doctor but sadly he was stuck with Eric Saward and other hacks.

The Doctor has always been an eccentric thrill seeker. But the 'focus' of the show in nuwho has always been his effect on companions.

Will Chibnall decide to focus on the Doctor more instead, and the Gallifrey stuff, with the companion as a side character? Or vice versa?

Interesting times ahead.

5. Empty Child / Doctor Dances

>Again, we aren't going to react that way because what the ¤¤¤¤ is a punishment platoon? What kind of tit-headed military would EVER come up with the concept of "these soldiers are REALLY ¤¤¤¤e, let's put them all together in a single platoon?" None.
Except that it is a real thing—and, even more importantly, it's a ridiculously common subject for military dramas and comedies. The Dirty Dozen, for example, is one of the most famous war movies ever made, and it's about… well, you can probably guess from the title, right?

This would be like starting a review of the Marian Conspiracy with:
>Evelyn is asking for "hot cocoa", in a fashion which one can only imagine is supposed to elicit "oh, of course!" reactions from the audience. But we aren't going to react that way because what the fuck is a hot cocoa? What kind of tit-headed idiot would EVER even think of heating up chocolate? None. Because it would melt all over your trousers.

In real life, you can trace back the Nazi Strafbattalions through Napoleon and Renaissance warfare to the medieval Landsknecht, who could never get enough volunteers (even at double pay) for the Verlorene Haufen units to lead the spearhead of an assault on a well-defended position, so they turned to men under discipline from other units and even civilian prisoners broken out of jail. (And the idea is almost certainly much older, there just aren't many written military records going back much further.)

But again, real life isn't even the issue. It's hard to imagine anyone could have never heard of the idea unless he'd never watched a single war movie, anti-war drama, or wartime comedy.

Child molestation is a cycle.

One day, a like boy named Peter saw a flyer that said:

>Och, you! Big Doctor Who fan? Want signed pics of William Hartnell? Come to the van on the corner of Bathgate Road at 4:00, and don't tell your parents!

He doesn't remember exactly what happened, but he feels uncomfortable whenever he looks at his collection of signed Hartnell photos.

And then, years later, he found himself leaving this flyer:

>Och, you! Big Doctor Who fan? Want signed pics of Peter Davison? Come to the van on the corner of Bathgate Road at 4:00, and don't tell your parents!

And a young boy named David saw them, and the cycle continues…

Fortunately, RTD kind of set things up starting in S2 by giving us more and more frequent shots of one or two Doctors at a time but never all of them at once. Do a lot of that—and maybe a lot of multi-Doctor episodes with just two or three—and people won't notice you're never doing the all-13-sir shots.

Probably more than Davros in his wildest dreams! Omega couldn't come close. And that's just one day in all my millennia. Time to save them all, all my victims!
>DOCTOR: But that's already happened. If you want to atone for it, I can help you, but you can't change your own past.

>MASTER: Doctor, is that you? Is this really the future me? She's insane! Please, save me!
>MISSY: Oh yes, save him, Doctor. You save everyone. Even me. And all you have to do to save him is kill me. Just murder your best friend, and take on the responsibility for all the trillions of murders he's going to commit, and you'll save the universe.

Romana as a companion would be terrible, and not just for casuals. She'd be a middle-aged hyper-competent professional turned hippie dropout story, like a bad early 70s movie, rather than a young woman exploring the universe.

Romana as a guest character in a 2-parter, that could work. Or a recurring character that shows up whenever he goes back to Gallifrey.

And the BBC are surprised when it gets low viewing figures. They never promote it. The trailer hasn't aired on BBC1 once, so the general public will not know it's on.

The only reason I can think of for not showing it is they want to announce the 13th Doctor first, but I really doubt it

>mfw /who/, twitter, and GB autists are the only ones who know its coming back

Chibnall might save it if they air a Series 11 trailer in 2019.

Did they actually use the same cameras they used in the 60's to film this? Or was it all edited to look like an old 60's tape in post?

Bullshit. They promote the hell out of it on FB. We live in a different time now. everyone has cellphones and fb. every other day this week the DW fb page has been reminding us that april 15 is the date. They keep posting the time for heroes hastag as well.

She's actually who I see first as the female companion in my dream TARDIS team, except it's her from about 15 years ago.

The Doctor visits a collapsing civilisation (Anasazi or Maya, or maybe alien). One surviving town, cut off from the rest, is about to fall, and he can't save them. But he does rescue the granddaughter of the singer/historian, who's been training to take over from him because there are no male relatives left. She eventually leaves to become a historian or archeologist at a future Earth-colony university, like the original Erimem plan.

I think you got this backwards. Kids don't watch tv anymore. They go straight to hulu or netflix on their tablets and phones. It's the older generations that are still under the mindset the only way to watch a show is on tv.

Is this show any good now?

I gave up 3 episode into the Capaldi era. I really loved Eccleston, Tennant, and Smith (though Eccleston was the weakest of the three IMO).

But Capaldi was a bad choice. I just don't "feel his vibe" as the doctor. It's not the right flavor for it. And it's not as though I object to an older Doctor. The ones in the old series worked (though admittedly I've only seen a handful), John Hurt was amazing as the War Doctor, I feel that a British guy like Michael Caine or Stephen Fry would be amazing in that role....

It's just Capaldi is a bad fit, they should have fired him after a season. I've seen about 5 episodes total of his reign and I just don't like it. I hope they get back on track.
>>
>>80851925
Maybe it's not so much dull as desperate. "Hey, everyone I slept with before, and you fell asleep in the middle of it? And everyone else who heard about that? I'm better at it now, please give me another try."

Are they going to do a live link with one direction?

No but they still plan on disrespecting the actors from the classic series.

Hopefully they ramp up marketing once they finish filming....

The trailer was goat but now its stalled again.

When did he start in the role? Does it correlate to when marketing turned to shit? Was he responsible for promoting Class too?

According to wiki he was responsible for getting Kylie for Voyage of the Damned, so I'd say he's been around since then which is surprising since the marketing used to be GOAT back then

RTD was a marketing genius. Not so much directly managing the marketing, although he did some of that. The British entertainment media is a pretty small world, and he lived in that world. He went to the same parties as the presenters, and brought along the people they wanted to hang out with, and made them feel like they were part of the Doctor Who Phenomenon, so they wanted to make that phenomenon bigger.

Moffat doesn't do that. And whatever extra marketing effort he puts in beyond the usual showrunner duties is split between two brands. And it's focused on America first, the rest of teh world second, and Britain third (because that's what the BBC wants from him—it's what makes their balance sheets look good in presentations to the Tory Parliament).

So, being brand manager has to be a much harder job under Moffat than under RTD.

Nope.
>>
>>80854328

>>
>>80854378
Because it makes more money, at least in the short term, for BBC Television—and, post-reorg, even more so for BBC Studios. Look at their presentations to Parliament. The very first thing they list in their successes is the unprecedented deal selling Doctor Who to Amazon. And number three on the list is the renegotiated deals with BBC America and other worldwide broadcasters.

Murray Gold's S5 music works even better this way than when watching the episode directly. The fact that it's sometimes a bit too big/too much doesn't get in the way. Also, you notice things like the way the early-Disney touches help with that fairy tale feel Moffat always talks about, and how when he gets all John Williamsy for the action scenes it's much more Raiders than the Empire/Jedi thing he did in both RTD and later Moffat.

We will never get a Doctor Who Telltale game with multiple doctors, with a plotline that spans multiple Doctors era...

There is no canon in Doctor Who. BBC takes no stance on Canon and the showrunners don't either. In a show about time travel all canon is viable.

I've never seen anyone say anything nice about telltale games on 4chan before?

I love the Walking Dead. That's my only experience with them, though.

I don't see what people don't like. They say it's not a real game, I guess, since it's just a choose your own adventure most times. But I like it; they're good stories.

I'd kill for a multi-doctor telltale game. Good way to bring everyone together despite older appearances.

Someone make a NEW THREAD since we're close to thread count. Make it Telltale Doctor Who edition
>>
>>80855821
Even /v/ has semi positive threads about telltale games like TWD. I think in general people have now thoroughly seen past the "your decisions alter the story" shit since any branching has minimal impact on what actually happens, but some people can still enjoy the stories while knowing they aren't influencing much
>>

>They say it's not a real game
Ignore anyone who uses this argument, it's subjective bullshit and it's not worth trying to convince them of anything

>BBC takes no stance on Canon and the showrunners don't either
RTD took no stance on it.

Moffat takes the stance that it's a stupid question to even ask in the first place.

But I like Nev Fountain's answer best: If you have to know whether something is canon before you can enjoy it, you're not actually enjoying anything.
>>
I consider only the show and big finish to be canon because I like to have a life and don't/won't dedicate too much time to a fictional story. That being said, it's all up to you.
